    If anyone is still looking for meaningful ways to define generations, Millennials are the first to grow up when most U.S. kids didn’t have actionable levels of lead in their blood.pic.twitter.com/e02JJAIEl4

        Lead is too dangerous to use fueling cars or painting or transporting sewage but allowable when placed into a chamber and blasted into the environment for recreational purposes.

        With this admin the term ‘post-millennial ‘ will become operational.

        Spoiled brats! When I was their age, I had blood full of lead, paid for college with my summer job, and bought my first house for 30k!!!

        Next time a millennial does something outrageous, I will blame it on lead deficiency.

        You know, I could actually see this being used as a serious statement by the NRA. That thought alone is horrifying.

        I wonder what is the effect of this historical lead poisoning on our political system, and the subsequent change in same as the population ages. Am I correct in my understanding that even low levels of lead poisoning can make people more combative and less analytical?
